Corrected entry: In the scene in which Spangler shows the younger cadets the sex slides which Francis sabotaged, Francis is seen ducking away from the spot where he's been standing, however he has not moved when Spangler approaches him after he turns off the slides.
Malcolm in the Middle (2000)
1 corrected entry in Shame
Starring: Bryan Cranston, Frankie Muniz, Erik Per Sullivan, Jane Kaczmarek, Justin Berfield
Genres: Comedy
Plot hole: Hal says that his father was never there when he got dumped. But in episode 7, "Francis Escapes" Hal tells Francis he's never been dumped.
Opening theme song: Yes, no, maybe, I don't know, can you repeat the question? You're not the boss of me now, You're not the boss of me now, You're not the boss of me now, and you're not so big. You're not the boss of me now, You're not the boss of me now, You're not the boss of me now, and you're not so big. Life is unfair.
Trivia: Even though he plays Reese's younger brother, Frankie Muniz is actually about three months older than Justin Berfield.
Question: Malcolm keeps giving Francis the phone number to call his girlfriend but why does he need it to call her? Why doesn't he use the number at school to call her?
Answer: Francis is only allowed to talk on the phone at school for three minutes a day. I think the code gives him free access to talk to his girlfriend.

Correction: Francis didn't duck out of the room, he was the one who shut off the projector and Spangler said it was "technical difficulties" and Francis went back to his standing position when Spangler approached him.
